Provides for immediate issuance of marriage and civil union licenses; provides for 72 hour waiting period prior to ceremony.

This bill changes New Jersey's marriage and civil union licensing process by requiring licenses to be issued immediately upon application, eliminating the current 72-hour wait to pick up the license. However, couples must still wait 72 hours after receiving their license before the ceremony can take place, unless waived by a Superior Court for emergencies or for active duty military members. The bill does not alter the existing 30-day validity period for licenses. It primarily affects couples applying for marriage or civil union licenses in New Jersey, streamlining the initial license issuance while maintaining the waiting period before the ceremony.
